Step 4 · Install Mounting Bracket

The new pendant light will likely come with a mounting bracket or crossbar. Align this bracket with the screw holes on the existing electrical box. Use the screws provided with the fixture (or appropriate screws if the originals are not suitable) to firmly attach the bracket to the electrical box. Ensure the bracket is level and securely fastened, as it will support the weight of the fixture.
